I believe the cause of the problem to be the following line
in the command() method of Net::Cmd:
return $cmd unless defined fileno($cmd);
which causes the method to fail silently if the connection
has gone away. What I consider to be the bug is that the
return code from the previous command is retained, so
[applications] cannot correctly detect the error.
The workaround is to explicitly call fileno()
explicitly on your Net::Cmd-derived object (such as Net::NNTP)
in order to detect and handle such errors.
if ($obj->code() eq "000" || !defined fileno($obj)) {
# Handle error here...
